Located north of Orrick. Instead of turning on route Z going into Orrick turn north on route O and then turn east on the first gravel road just before the railroad overpass. Go past three houses and then make a hard left and drive up the bluff. The Murl Thomas land and home is at the top of the hill. The cemetery is a narrow strip of land located between a ditch and the road on his property. .

Note from reseacher: Judith Colhour <email:slg000@cameron.net> My ggg grandmother Elizabeth Mullin and her mother, my gggg grandmother Mary Stewart Creason are buried on this land. I have pictures of the stones that were taken today. Also established in 1988 is a rather large monument listing the men killed from "Bloody Bill" Anderson's raiders as they are buried there in unmarked graves. There are two limestone markers still standing also. On only one can anything be read- it says E.C. -1829.
